Sodas that send you across the Atlantic

Italian soda, a blend of soda water and syrup , is just $1.50 at the Espresso Royale Caffè (286 Newbury Street, in Boston). Fruit-flavored syrups include raspberry, blackberry, strawberry, and passion fruit. Espresso Royale also serves French sodas made with syrup and lait, an exciting alternative to chocolate milk. For $2, you can feel like you're sipping on a sidewalk of the Champs-Elysées.
